i need european web hosting on windows server

[Richardos]

Hi! I am a software developer and I'm looking to sell some software. I'm mainly going to be running a forum, but I also need a bit of storage space for this software, so I figure that I only need shared web hosting.

The software that I'm selling is a .exe file using the .NET framework. Now I'm going to have a PHP script which executes an encrypter which then encrypts my .exe file, then the PHP script will take a copy of the file and move it to a new folder and then zip it. The zipped files will be deleted every 2 or 3 months, and shouldn't take up more space than around 2-3 GB (that is all the files combined).

For that to work, I need this requirements:
1. The webhost has to offer Windows as the operating system of the server.
2. No PHP restrictions. Well, at least it can't block functions like exec.
3. At least 10GB storage space, and an option to upgrade. I'm looking for a webhost that has good and fast support (so 24/7, or close to that) and I'd also like SSL as an option.
4. I prefer to host in european server (it's my consideration about the site speed)

I found that Hostforlife.eu meet my requirements. Are you guys are familiar with this hosting provider? I'm hoping that some of you have a good sites in mind. Thanks in advance

http://lowendbox.com/ is where I usually look for servers. They are mostly Linux servers as that's the most popular OS for Internet servers. Very cheap, I pay like $12 a year for my servers. You can find windows servers on lowendbox too.

PHP was made with Linux in mind and is the P in LAMP, Linux Apache, MySQL and PHP.

Bandwidth might be a problem for you if users download a lot of your software. Make sure you get enough. If it's going to be a huge amount of bandwidth like 100s of terabytes look at Amazon cloud services or something like it.
